I like the Jason Richardson comparison I've seen floating around. J-Rich is one of those "I can't believe he never made an All-Star Team" guys.

He's going to play best as a PF in college IMO which might cause people to underrate his potential on the perimeter in the nba. He'll benefit massively from the larger court and less compact defenses.

He is a beast, and from hearing him speak he sounds extremely articulate for his age. He has the intelligence and maturity of a top 3 guy.

Would still take Simmons number 1 though.

Cal's game will be live streamed tomorrow for anyone who is interested. Although their opponents finished dead last last year, should be a competitive game.

Sorry, I don't know what time you've got there but the game starts in 14 hours.
Can watch at the Hawks official site. Should be able to watch on Cal's site too.

In 15 minutes of action, Brown had 14 points, one rebound, and two assists to go along with four fouls.

Tonight, Brown had 18 points, 11 rebounds, four assists, and two steals. I wonder how he'll do against Malik Pope on Thursday. What do you guys think of him so far?

I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that Jaylen Brown is one of the most talented athletes ever to wear our blue and gold. Just a freshman, but already he looks the part. And, unlike many with his physical skills and abilities, he is extremely intelligent -- which is why I am confident that, as good as he already is, we are going to see him blossom and mature into an incredible player by the end of this year.

Brown's biggest problem right now is that he plays too much as an individual -- a forgivable flaw considering his amazing talent. When you are as good as he is, why wouldn't your instinct be to take the ball to the rim every time you touch it? But once Brown learns to play within the offense, to rely less on isolation, less on trying to cut through defenses, less on taking on four guys at once and taking them all to the rim, and more on using his teammates, drawing double teams and kicking to the open man, working with his bigs, he will create more open shots, keep defenses from keying in and collapsing on him, and when that happens, he will truly be special. Brown will figure this out. I'm certain of it. And in the meantime, we can settle for lines like 17 points and 7 boards, 6/10 from the field in only 21 minutes. I think I can live with that for now...

I don't think so, they'll be on Fox Sports 1. I usually stream games, maybe first row or check the college basketball subreddit to find a stream.

I agree, the decision making will improve as he learns to play with his team. Throughout AAU and HS, it was basically all him. How do you think he'll fare again Pope? Pope is long and athletic and projects to be a good defender.

I really like his size, just wonder if he'll have enough shooting to be a star at the next level.

That's what also kept Jimmy Butler down.

How good do you see him becoming? I remember seeing an article that said he could've went lotto back in 2014, even higher than Aaron Gordon.
